Configuration: Event Monitor
An event monitor is provided with Dell PowerVault Modular Disk Storage
Manager (MDSM). The event monitor runs continuously in the background
and monitors activity on the managed storage arrays. If the event monitor
detects any critical problems, it can notify a host or remote system using e-
mail, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) trap messages, or both.
For the most timely and continuous notification of events, enable the event
monitor on a management station that runs 24 hours a day. Enabling the
event monitor on multiple systems or having a combination of an event
monitor and MDSM active can result in duplicate events, but this does not
indicate multiple failures on the array.
To use the Event Monitor:
Set up alert destinations for the managed device that you want to monitor.
A possible alert destination would be the Dell Management Console. For
more information on the Dell Management Console, see
dell.com
.
Replicate the alert settings from a particular managed device by copying
the
emwdata.bin
file to every storage management station from which you
want to receive alerts.
Each managed device shows a check mark that indicates that alerts are set.
